AR targets include genes regulating a range of cellular functions such as cell cycle progression (CCND1, CDK4, and CDC25A), apoptosis (BCL2 and MCL1), DNA repair and genome stability (Ku70/Ku80, BRCA1, and RAD51), immune modulation (IL-6 and PD-L1), cell invasion and tumor metastasis (MMP9, VEGF, and EPHB2), metabolism (HK2, LDHA, and ACLY) and miRNAs. Here, MMP9 is linked to neoplasm.
